Song lyrics Down on the corner by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Early in the evenin´ just about supper time
Over by the courthouse they´re starting to unwind
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp
[Chorus:]
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin´
Bring a nickel; tap your feet

Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo

[Chorus x2]

You don´t need a penny just to hang around
But if you´ve got a nickel, won´t you lay your money down?
Over on the corner there´s a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy

[Chorus x3]
